Pellegrini and Ancelotti are not feasible prospective successors to Koeman.

I hate to admit this, but we're more likely to get one of the "lesser" managers that the media have been linking us with lately: someone like Harry Redknapp, Sam Allardyce or Tony Pulis.

We're just not that an attractive proposition. Small ground, no recent success. In the last thirty years we've won the same as Wigan FFS: One FA Cup. And we've only finished in the top 4 once since the Premier League began.
 
We have only just joined the premier league competitively and financially moreso. Sacking managers occasionally is a dangerous trend we don’t really wanna engage in.


Depends what you are sacking them for.

If it's broken then fix it.

That is what serious football teams do.

And boy, does EFC look broken right now.
 

Taking one year’s data doesn’t prove a point mate. Plus I doubt we’re gonna agree regardless so I’ll leave you to get back to what you were doing.

* average points total of La Liga Champions is 95, for Premier League is 86, but hey! Data and agendas.

I could run and run with this but it's late and there's a load of Tory bashing on the Sunday Politics repeat that I'm missing. As you were lads...
 

Sacking managers is fine if you've got a load of cash to spend afterwards. In our situation it isn't very advisable. We're more likely to end up like Villa than we are Spurs.


I tend to agree with that and that is why I am still hesitant to pull the trigger.

However.....to stick with this bloke and allow this malaise to deepen will be just as disastrous.....but probably much quicker.

This guy is not going to turn it round IMO.

I doubt even the staunchest Koemantonian believes he will at this stage.

And I believe he will be gone at the end if the season anyway.

But even if he ain't, he will deffo be gone at the end of next season.

He has no desire to stay here in the long term and IMO this is being reflected on the pitch.

Which us why I am really veering toward getting rid.
 
So back to Koeman and Everton as I was saying, due to the competitiveness of the Premier League there’s no real shortcuts into sustainable success. It’s well chartered that hiring and firing managers often is likely to be more unsuccessful than work. So perhaps a bit of patience is a virtue. Maybe even too for managers widely lauded by their own fanbase two months ago.

There's absolutely no shortcuts to sustainable success, outside of having an oil-state backing you, in any major league. We ain't that special in that regard Chico but - it's moot, because it remains that there's no shortcuts for Everton Football Club.

Which is why hiring a 'big name' manager and chucking a couple hundred milli at him with no sodding plan is utterly thick. And will remain utterly thick. Patience with an utterly thick plan does not, unfortunately, reduce its utter thickness. Sack Koeman, sack Walsh, get a proper bloody progressive and effective recruitment and managerial structure in place. Look at absolutely any other club in Europe who have successfully enacted a sustainable long-term plan for breaking through to the next level. There's clear themes, processes and ways of doing it, and we ain't doing any of it. And we never will with these plodders in charge, I can promise you.

Fair points mate. I feel it too. I just think now isn’t the time to jib him.
